This refreshing recipe features sardines mixed with a creamy dressing, creating a rich, savory filling that’s both satisfying and heart-healthy. The sardines, packed with omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential nutrients, serve as the star of this dish, providing a wholesome base that complements the crunchy, crisp lettuce wraps. With the creamy dressing binding everything together, each bite delivers a delightful contrast of textures and flavors that are both delicious and nourishing.

While I know not everyone is a fan of sardines, you can use other canned fish like salmon or tuna. You can even use canned chicken or shredded chicken, but you may need to add a bit of olive oil to help the moisture. While this recipe was intentionally kept simple, you can add other diced vegetables into it like red bell pepper or asparagus. Customize it to make it your own!
